best in the land Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 10 minutes ago, Ex member of the SaS said: If I am correct the extra time from the side lines are advisory and the ref has the final say. It was obvious Sevco would be allowed to play until they got the winner. Posted weeks ago that VaR should be policed by neutral officials, even to the extent of lower English league refs. Not guaranteed it would make a difference. English refs would soon be turned by the arsecheeks mafia. There needs to be more accountability for referee performance and for them to explain decision's after the match. Even microphones like rugby so they can be heard. Nothing will ever change.

Juho_Makela_Goal_Machine Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Clark Kent Kingsley Rowles Forrest Devlin Beni Cochrane Oda Shanks Lowry Need creativity in wide areas to break this lot down. With Oda and Lowry playing narrow, it's less painful having that lack of creativity in the middle of the park with Devlin and Beni playing there, and the 2 of them should be enough defensively against their 3 they normally go with. If Oda's not fit, go with Grant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Quaresma Posted October 30, 2023 Author Share Posted October 30, 2023 7 hours ago, Jim Panzee said: given yesterday pretty much confirmed that VAR officials are going to try their absolute damnedest to proactively scrutinise open play to identify opportunities to give the OF (unclaimed for) penalties, we have to absolutely aiming to be winning every non OF fixture. I'm sure if Naismith and players were interviewed they would confirm this is the case already - but IMO up to yesterday they'd be paying lip service to that. yesterday should hammer home the fact that not only do planets have to align where we play well and the uglies have an off day, we have to also beat VAR. I think the game at ibrox proved it can be done, beating them there, well, it proved we can beat them because it was virtually done I don't think it's much different to the days of Fergie's Aberdeen, the players just have to keep their nose clean; easier said than done, but still doable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted weeks ago that VaR should be policed by neutral officials, even to the extent of lower English league refs. on subject of time does anyone think it would help the game if stadiums had a clock clearly visible to all that the ref stops at his discretion whenever there's a significant stoppage or even when someone is blatantly timewasting. Also taking a leaf out of rugby's book, the game is over when the ball goes out of play after 90 minutes ? Let's see how the conspirators cope with those changes . Oh and please feel free to shoot these suggestions down in flames with good reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t bring myself to watch the highlights nor do I want to read any of the match reports. As soon as I read on here that there was a second penalty I said to my wife “They’ll score another,” and just laughed when they did. It’s all so predictable. It’s not worth getting angry about any more. If the club aren’t going to go daft over the injustices then I’m not going to get my blood pressure up. But for some daft reason I feel the urge to buy a ticket for Wednesday night. What’s wrong with us?! Nothing wrong, mate; we played very close to our full potential, Offiah looked much more like how he played in his first game here and rose to the challenge, both him and Vargas had their first Scottish game in front of a huge crowd So, you can tell that there is lots of work going on in the background in between games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did post a long post on grant's situation a while back, it's unfortunate for him and seems to have been signed for #10 just prior to Shankland and snodgrass being signed He's played on the left before so got the nod because Lowry can't play against rangers I guess Honestly though I think Lowry is a better bet, although I would still be pondering which of them start and which finish tomorrow night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartsfc_fan Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 If Sibbick and Offiah are out then I'd play Cochrane at right back. He's got a decent right foot so should be fine there.
